Frequently Asked Questions

Can roles apply to specific devices?

Absolutely. Roles target device groups (BYOD, kiosks, corporate) so policies and permissions execute only on relevant endpoints.

How does RBAC improve security?

By enforcing least privilege, RBAC limits exposure of critical functions to authorized roles only, reducing the risk of accidental or malicious actions.

What is role inheritance?

Nested roles inherit parent permissions to simplify large deployments by reducing duplicate configurations and easing permission management.

Can roles sync with directories?

Yes. Bento integrates with Active Directory/LDAP to auto-update role memberships as staff move teams, keeping access aligned with org changes.

How are roles created?

Define roles in the MDM console with specific permissions (lock, wipe, app install) and map them to user groups or devices.

What is RBAC in MDM?

RBAC assigns device management permissions based on roles, departments, or device groups to ensure least-privilege access per team responsibilities.
